Bond set for Rogers:

A Lake County woman was ordered held on $4 million bond after a judge awarded her a new trial on May 1. Sandra D. Rogers, formerly of Mundelein, is currently serving a 30-year sentence for a 2003 sledgehammer attack on her ex-husband and his then-new wife. Rogers' 2004 plea didn't admit her guilt but rather acknowledged the state's case was strong enough to result in a guilty verdict. Rogers, formerly of Mundelein, has been imprisoned since then. Authorities said Rogers and co-defendant Jonathan McMeekin went to the Lincolnshire home of Richard Rogers and Angela Gloria and attacked them as they slept.
